MountainMan Posted August 28, 2002 Posted August 28, 2002 I'm working otherwise I'd be so there. Quote
sverdina Posted August 28, 2002 Author Posted August 28, 2002 My God! You're attained chief Wanker status. Congratulations! Quote
terrible_ted Posted August 28, 2002 Posted August 28, 2002 West Face? (Fun!) Corkscrew? (Slog!) You should specify... and have fun. -t Quote
sverdina Posted August 28, 2002 Author Posted August 28, 2002 Ahh, right...was thinkin' the Slog route. Though not familiar w/ W. face I would be open to doing that instead. You up for it? Quote
terrible_ted Posted August 28, 2002 Posted August 28, 2002 Not really, Bedal Creek is a bit of a thrash and I did my time last week on Bachelor Creek. W. Face goes 5.4 to 5.5. From Bedal Basin, push on up traversing until you get to the west face route (it's farther than you think...), usually indicated by the water running down the route line. Once at the base, just go up, ignoring the reams of tedious beta describing the climb. Seems to me it was about a half-dozen real pitches followed by a bunch of simul-climbable stuff. A nice but very full day. There are bivi trenches just below the route. Bedal Creek is even more fun to hike out from in the dark ! Quote
sverdina Posted August 28, 2002 Author Posted August 28, 2002 A long day then...what time did u start? Sounds interesting, though probably not solo. Hey, hopin' you cut a nice swath through the brush up bachelor creek. We're headed that way this wkend. Post some photos... Quote
